Egg Donation and Surrogacy
A surrogacy process using donated eggs is an option for same-sex male couples or heterosexual couples who have had limited success with their own eggs.
- For many women, using donated eggs can be s difficult and an emotional decision if they had planned to use their own. We are here to support you. If it is an option, you can start the surrogacy process with your eggs and switch to donation if needed.
- In a surrogacy process where donated eggs are used, the egg donor is always chosen at the destination. The surrogate is never the donor. This is called gestational surrogacy.
- Repeating certain steps is normal due to human and biological factors. The egg donation process is complex and varies for each person, relying on medical expertise, clinic professionalism, and the availability of the donor. We are here to support you throughout the process.

Open or Closed Egg Donation
- In open egg donation, the identity of the egg donor is unknown to the intended parents. The donor and the clinic have agreed upon when the clinic can release her identity.
- In closed egg donation, the identity of the egg donor remains unknown. The same applies to the intended parents, who remain unknown to the egg donor. Which type of egg donation applies in your surrogacy journey depends on the legislation regarding egg donation at your chosen destination.
The Egg Donation Process
- 1
Screening of egg donors
All egg donors undergo medical and psychological screening at our partner clinics, and in some cases, genetic screening as well.
- 2
Selection of egg donor
Intended parents choose an egg donor from the clinic’s database.
- 3
Donor confirmation
Once the donor’s availability is checked and she is approved after screening, the egg donor is confirmed and reserved for your surrogacy process.
- 4
Hormone treatment
The egg donor starts hormone treatment at the right time in her menstrual cycle and is treated for a few weeks to produce as many eggs as possible.
- 5
Egg retrieval, fertilization, and embryo development
When the eggs reach the desired size and number according to the doctor, egg retrieval is performed. The eggs are fertilized with sperm from the intended father, initiating embryo development.
It takes five to six days for embryos to reach the blastocyst stage, which are the embryos used in the surrogacy process. The embryos are then frozen, awaiting the surrogate’s hormone treatment.
